Adeptly Controlling the …ahem…Fragrance… in Adult Diapers When the Hot spell Arrives

If you live with bowel control issues, you know first hand the awkwardness that odor can cause.

Now and again life happens and you can not get away to change your adult diaper. You’re at the mall, on public transit, you’re at work, or maybe you are at school and you have forgotten your extra supplies, or you can’t get away to change because there’s no where to change. The problem is worse if it’s a hot, maybe even moist, summer day, and odors are heightened.

The degradation as people around you proceed to smell the air, and you’re keeping your eyes pointed ahead praying, hopeful, that no one recognizes that it’s you. Or, alternatively, you are pretending as you’re smelling the air too – trying to redirect the long hard look away from you.

Generally people do not choose to sit in a grungy adult diaper – but when life happens and you can’t change your messy adult diaper – what can you do to hide the… ahem… stench?

When you are desperate, you’ll head for anything to try and obscure the smells flowing from the adult diaper. Happen upon a gas station and stock up on those air freshners and wear them in your adult diaper. That’s a cartoon for you!

But it does not have to be that way…the fix is easier than you suspect – and quite wallet friendly! A travel sized spritzer bottle filled with water and a drop or two of essential oils. Stick around – men – before we kiss goodbye your attention — not all essential oils are floral scented. So, utilizing essential oils will not make you ‘womanlike’.

You’ll need a standard and a small (travel-sized), spray bottle, essential oils and water. Essential oils can be acquired as a single oil or an oil blend. Many big market stores and your local pharmacy carry these oils and they can also easily be found online. Many malls have kiosks dedicated to soaps and oils. You can find “feminine” oils (flowery scents like Jasmine, Lavendar, Geranium) or masculine (earthy like Cedarwood, Oakmoss, Black Pepper, Sandalwood, most citrus scents, etc).

While some of the more masculine scents are not by definition readily obtainable (like Black Pepper) at your community drugstore stores, if you look for masculine blends – you will find that many blends incorporate several essential oils into a blend.

Take your spray bottles, drop in1-3 drops of the essential oil (3 drops for the run-of-the-mill spray bottle, 1 drop for the small (pocket-sized) spray bottle – and fill with water.

When getting ready for the day – take your standard-sized spray bottle and mildly squirt your adult diaper – one quick spray will do it. Pack the small (travel-sized) spray bottle in your supply bag, within effortless reach. This will facilitate to hide any embarrassing odors. And, because the smaller spray bottle is travel-sized, it fits handily into a pocket or purse – backpack, laptop bag – you guessed it – no one has to know. Then, if you perceive in the heat of the day that you’re not smelling as fresh – you can discreetly bring out your bottle and add another spritz. All people will notice is the smell of your preference of essential oil.

An added bonus to this cost effective way of controlling odor, is that you and everybody around you benefits from the properties of the essential oil. As we all know, Lavender has a peaceful affect, Grapefruit promotes concentration, eases anxiety and revives the spirit, Peppermint helps alleviate headaches.

You can even have a little bit of merrymaking during Christmas season – by using holiday scents – so everybody thinks you’re genuinely in the Christmas spirit!
